Nandre Burger to Nathan Ellis
Aims the stumps, on a length. Nathan Ellis brings the bat in front to push it away, but the ball nips in and goes off the inside edge. Rolls toward the deep square leg region for a single.

A pinpoint yorker from Burger to welcome Ellis on the crease. Ellis does well to dig that out.
Nathan Ellis is the new batter in.

Nandre Burger to Ben Dwarshuis
OUT! CAUGHT! Ben Dwarshuis' fighting innings finally come to an end! Nandre Burger goes into the pitch, cramps Ben for the room as he looks to pull that away on the leg side, and finds Dewald Brevis deployed at short mid-wicket, who takes a good catch on his left shoulder.

Aiden Markram to Ben Dwarshuis
Just in the crease in time! Markram drifts this one into the batter, it lands around the off pole and spins away sharply. Ben Dwarshuis gets on the front foot and tries to drive on the initial line, but is beaten on the outside edge as the ball spins away. Ryan Rickelton collects it cleanly behind the stumps and flashes off the bails in a snap. A huge appeal for stumping and the on-field umpires send it upstairs to the third umpire to have a check. The side-on replay shows that Dwarshuis' back leg gets dragged outside the crease, but he is quick enough to plonk that back inside in time, before Rickelton dislodges the bails off.
Is that out? Not much of an appeal from Ryan Rickelton behind the stumps but the third umpire is called in to have a look. The replays roll in and it appears to be closer than expected but Ben Dwarshuis does have his back foot grounded inside the crease when the bails come off. NOT OUT!
